Arms of love that hold you together
a broken man’s pride
his heart became weakened
He knows down inside
What He must do
what road is the right path
the good inside him
that He never knew
The green in his heart
as his brother is praised
emotions run high
as he lifted his stone
and he knew what would happen
once it was thrown
We do this to ourselves
We knew its up to us
We don’t want to take responsibility
Just find another defense mechanism
So we don’t have to be honest with ourselves
How it must feel to have started it all
to be the sin of man
one first great downfall
must still feel the taste on the lips
of an apple so ripe
should have listened...
Oh Jesus
What a weight it must be
To tell You who You were
to say to you
“You’re going to die a horrible death,
the sin of the world on your shoulders”
but I know if you could
You’d do it again a thousand times
